Important Safety Notices and Warnings
Global Positioning System
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite-based system that provides location and
timing information around the globe. GPS is operated and controlled under the sole
responsibility of the Government of the United States of America which is responsible for
its availability and accuracy. Any changes in GPS availability and accuracy, or in environ-
mental conditions, may impact the operation of your TomTom device. TomTom does not
accept any liability for the availability and accuracy of GPS.
Use with Care
Use of a TomTom device for navigation still means that you need to drive with due care
and attention.
Aircraft and Hospitals
Use of devices with an antenna is prohibited on most aircraft, in many hospitals and in
many other locations. A TomTom device must not be used in these environments.
Battery
This product uses a Lithium-Polymer battery. Do not use it in a humid, wet and/or corro-
sive environment. Do not put, store or leave your product in or near a heat source, in a
high temperature location, in strong direct sunlight, in a microwave oven or in a pressu-
rized container, and do not expose it to temperatures over 60 C (140 F). Failure to follow
these guidelines may cause the Lithium-Polymer battery to leak acid, become hot, explode
or ignite and cause injury and/or damage. Do not pierce, open or disassemble the battery.
If the battery leaks and you come into contact with the leaked fluids, rinse thoroughly with
water and seek medical attention immediately. For safety reasons, and to prolong the life-
time of the battery, charging will not occur at low (below 0 C/32 F) or high (over 45 C/
113 F) temperatures.
Temperatures: Standard operation: -0 C (32 F) to +45 C (113 F); short period storage: -
20 C (-4 F) to + 60 C (140 F); long period storage: -20 C (-4 F) to +25 C (77 F).
Caution: risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Do not remove or attempt to remove the non-user-replaceable battery. If you have a prob-
lem with the battery, please contact TomTom customer support.
